Two new French marigold series, 'Cresta' and 'Alumia', bring improved earliness, good heat tolerance and excellent colours. 'Alumia Vanilla Cream', is a unique colour and one which brings great possibilities for designer mixes.

The new genetically dwarf F1 petunia 'Espresso' series is launched with the motto 'Short but strong'. Available in both multiflora & grandiflora types, 'Espresso' is a non-stretching type of petunia which is easier to grow and yet has much improved vigour in the garden.

Floranova's great selection of 'cool crops' is highlighted by new F1 'Bel Viso' series of viola cornuta, which brings both earliness and uniformity in spring & autumn with a range of vibrant colours. Meanwhile, the 'Sugar Rush' series of annual flowering wallflower is further complimented with the addition of 'Red' and 'Orange'.
